Victoria: A little bit of England
You'd love to go to England, but
you can't afford to fly over the ocean,
and you can't get enough air into the
tires to drive across What to do7
Luckily, there s a little bit of England
only a few hours north of Eugene
Victoria, British Columbia, may not
have Buckingham Palace and Chuck
and Di, but it makes a good substitute
for a few days' vacation Especially
now when rates are low and the
weather is nice
The place to stay in Victoria is the
Empress, a 70-year-old grand hotel in
the grandest style, which is British
through and through Unfortunately,
its 400-some rooms are usually
booked up well in advance, and the
price is a bit steep for more than a
couple of days
There are a number of inexpensive,
clean little places near the Empress at
more reasonable cost If you have a
little extra money, The Olde England
Inn boasts centuries-old antiques In
every room, and prices start from
around $30
Even during this time of year, the
Butchart Gardens have something in
bloom, and are well worth the time for
a leisurely stroll Prices in the off-sea
son are a lot lower that when tourists
crowd every peaceful corner of the
terribly British gardens during sum
mer, and it's an excellent way to un
wind after those nasty finals
Perhaps the most British thing in
Victoria is High Tea at the Empress
From 2:30 to 4 p m they cover the
tables with white tablecloths and the
stately lobby becomes a massive tea
parlour Everyone sits in the huge
armchairs sipping tea, nibbling crum
pets and scones and having a jolly
good time
After that, there's the Crystal Gar
dens to wander through The Crystal
Gardens is a huge glass building built
in 1925, then enclosing a swimming
pool and restaurants It has very
recently been remodeled, and now is
something of a giant greenhouse,
filled with fountains, plants and exotic
birds There's even a cafe, so if you
miss tea at the Empress, you can have
it overlooking the gardens
And then there s the Craigderroch
Castle, the Provincial Museum, the
Government buildings, the Captain's
Palace, the nightclubs enough for
a long break from the books
It may not be England really But
since it's only eight hours away by car,
and easily accessibly by bus — it's
bloody easy to pretend
by matt meyer
You've got to be kidding
Believe it or not. it's a good time to go to
the Oregon Coast.
OK. you may not see as much surfing as
if you were in Hawaii, and you won t get as
much of a tan as if you were lying on the
beach of Sydney, but we re talking
student budgets here.
% Perhaps the best thing about the coast
is its built-in romantic atmosphere A
simple yame of Scrabble can become the
start of something big with the roar of the
waves and the ominous horizon in the
background (beats a Montovani record
hands down).
For non-Scrabblers. there are romantic
strolls along the beach, driftwood fires
(legal on most Reaches — check to be
sure) with marshmallows and cuddling,
awesome sunsets and nippy gray morn
ings.
There's a surprising amount of diversity
available at the coast. You can start by
buying a kite an^taking advantage of the
coastal breezes There are kite shops to
visit both in Eugene and at the coast that
carry everything from low cost paper kites
to fabric models costing hundreds of
dollars.
»L
If you're feeling adventurous, wetsuits
can be rented for a day of diving or surf
ing. Or you can try your hand at clamming
or even fishing, if the weather's right. If
you don't manage to bring in enough to fill
you up. there are. naturally, an abundance
of great seafood places. Mo's, both in
Newport and Otter Rock, and the Wind
ward Inn in Florence are good places to
start, then work your way through some of
the lesser known spots.
Accomodations range from the posh
resort to the humble campsite, with ex
cellent views of the sea available from
both. The more expensive option offers a
few more interesting diversions, like
pools, saunas, whirlpool baths, tennis
courts, champagne brunches and golf
courses, but many towns on the coast
have public facilities available at low cost.
Not surprisingly, the cost for all this is
fairly reasonable. Tourism is an important
part of the coast's income, and merchants
are anxious to attract the few off-season
tourists that come by. High temperatures
bring high prices and big crowds, which
makes this the perfect time of year for
visiting the beach — at least when there
are no Pacific storms brewing.
